When EEG may be considered

When may an EEG be part of a neurological evaluation?

An electroencephalogram is a non-invasive test that records the brain’s electrical activity through electrodes placed on the scalp.

Important: An EEG does not establish a diagnosis by itself. Its findings must be interpreted as part of the broader neurological evaluation.

What the study can contribute

What can EEG testing contribute to your evaluation?

The study can add information to the broader neurological picture.

EEG testing options available

The appropriate study depends on the medical order and clinical question. Our team confirms the requested modality before scheduling.

The integrated advantage: EEG findings are reviewed alongside the patient’s symptoms, medical history, imaging, medications, and neurological evaluation to provide a more clinically meaningful interpretation.

The Center emphasizes integrating EEG findings with the patient’s clinical history and neurological evaluation to provide a more meaningful interpretation.

The recording matters. The clinical context gives it meaning.

Questions before scheduling

Frequently asked questions about EEG testing

General answers to help you prepare. Your specific instructions may vary according to the medical order and the EEG requested.

An electroencephalogram is a non-invasive neurological test that records electrical activity in the brain using electrodes placed on the scalp.

EEG is non-invasive. The electrodes record electrical signals and do not deliver electrical shocks to the brain.

An EEG may be used as part of the evaluation of suspected seizures, epilepsy, altered awareness, or other neurological events.

The Center provides routine EEG, 24-hour, 48-hour and 72-hour ambulatory EEG, prolonged / video EEG monitoring, and specialized EEG interpretation.

The duration depends on the study. Routine and ambulatory EEGs involve different recording periods. The expected timing is confirmed when the study is scheduled.

Preparation varies by study. You will receive instructions before your appointment.

Do not stop or change medications unless specifically instructed by your healthcare professional.

No. EEG findings must be interpreted together with symptoms, medical history, neurological evaluation, and other available information.

An ambulatory EEG records brain electrical activity over a longer period at home. The Center offers 24-, 48-, and 72-hour ambulatory studies.

The recording is reviewed and interpreted, and results and next-step guidance follow the Center’s clinical process.

Epilepsy & Brain Center of Florida is located in Aventura, Florida, serving patients throughout South Florida.
